Best Answer

Fossils are great indicators of past climate. For example, coral reefs today form only in shallow, warm water between approximately 30 degrees North and 30 degrees South latitudes. When a rock containing fossil coral is found, it can be assumed that the particular area was once an area of shallow warm water.
